Wow, what an incredible week we have just had! Delegates arrived from 47 countries around the World and joined us at the Sheraton Hotel, Dallas, with only a few delays caused by a pretty big Texas storm early on in the week! The hotel shook with thunder and the skies lit up with lightening... and then the sun came and stayed with us for the rest of the week!
There are many photographs from the World Balloon Convention, so I thought that I would document WBC from a slightly different perspective. This is the first of my WBC blogs.
Day 1, Monday 19th March 2012 and the start of the Signature Sculpture, designed by Azusa Ieizumi, CBA, Japan.

After 2 days of much balloon inflating and many volunteer helpers, Azusa's Signature Sculpture is ready to greet everyone!
Congratulations to Azusa and all those who helped to create the 'World of Wonder', Signature Sculpture.
